First off, I understand that the OZW integration is in beta, and there is a lot of development happening in this area and that is very much appreciated! The concern is that the current approach assumes a significant amount of knowledge around setting up and connecting to MQTT brokers etc. After reading literal thousands of comments in different ZWave support threads it appears to cause significant challenges for most people.
Ideally it would be opinionated installer and have an option such as “If you are not currently using MQTT, click here to have it automatically installed/configured.”
